....but alot of them are based on true stories
Buttlight, what you have to understand is that the person who said it was a true story wants you to believe that. THEY are telling the story so THEY say it really happened. Whether they are lying or they are a little mental and actually believe it is the real question.
If someone has a problem with mental illness and doesn't know it, whatever they see is real to them. Reality is in the eye of the beholder. It is relative.
If you saw something that was in your imagination, yet it looked like you could reach out and touch it, you would say it was real. YOU saw it. You actually saw it and no one could tell you different. Because to you, in your mind, you DID see it.
Now, if 50 other people were in the room, and they did not see it, then you'd have to ask yourself "Am I crazy, or am I the only sane one here?" But then, and only then, would you question it. Otherwise you would take it your grave as concrete proof.
The human mind is a strange place. We do not know what it holds. Back in the 1950's man thought they had it down pretty good. But they were not close to what we know now. What was considered scientific fact then, is garbage now. (Not all of it of course)
Today we think like they did in the 1950's. "We figured it out." But like them, we have much to learn. One day they will look back at a lot of our science and scoff. Just like we scoff at ancient civilizations and the explanations they had for what was going on in the world.
Just my opinion of course
